Default Bravo 1 Trim Ram Question

Just noticed that on one of my outdrives one trim cylinder is pushing the bushing on the outdrive end way out of whack, almost looks like it is further out than the other one. Does it need to be synced or something, dual cylinder setup should equalize itself shouldnt it?

Possibly the problem is with the other ram, sticking and not wanting to extend?
But yes, they should equalize since they are tee'd off, which leads me to think it's the other side.

sounds like one of them is seizing up. remove the rear ram pin and operate the trim while someone watches. If only one moves, fix the other one.
